Getting IT band Surgery

After trying to treat my IT band syndrome a plethora of ways, I decided it was time to treat it was surgery. Unfortunately, they did not put me to sleep for it but rather used numbing medication to make it much less painful. Thankfully it worked and all I could feel was a little tugging. It was still way scary though haha. The surgery I did was not the usual IT band release surgery. We decided instead to do a less invasive procedure with very similar success rates (80- 85%). They doc things he got me fixed up so I am very hopeful to running in only 4 weeks!! COMEBACK TIME. For those of you trying to treat your own systems, keep surgery as a last resort! I would recommend message therapy. Thank you for watching and your support! I'll do my best to answer as many questions as possible in the comments!
